Take it for 'granate


Is the pomegranate thing still going? I try to be on top of trends; I was saying Gisele was done way back in the hoary old days of "orange is the new black" 1999, and I was among the first to declare the David Foster Wallace revival over. So cut me some slack if I don't know about the pomegranates. Very busy here, etc.


I don't bake, so it's unlikely I will make the cake herein:



I pine (cedar?) eternally for the pomegranate cakes that the local Lebanese church would sell at the local Oktoberfest when I was young...I think someone's gran made them and when she died so went the recipe. They were little yellow spongey cakes with grated tart pomegranate on them. Guh. I wish I had one RIGHT NOW.
